I suspect Brendan's fan club kept Fiona in. I also disagree about Will from Casualty - perhaps he was a little bit wooden but he still all of the steps correctly and kept in time and his upper body was good. He had obviously put much more work into it than some of the others. Overall the male dancers were all much of a muchness, apart from Colin.
As a fomer dancer, from admittedly a long time ago, I found the judges marking to be strange. Usually I agree with them even when there is a lot of criticism of their marks. To give Zoe 9's was wrong - yes her performance was good but it still had a few rough edges and she is going to get better (at least on the dances which suit tall elegant couples). The judges are going to be forced to award 10s far earlier than I think they would want. Of course, by awarding Colin all 8's they were forced into that situation. Both of them were overmarked, as was Bill, who was no better than than the other men. Perhaps the judges were distracted by watching his hat !!!
